Guys,
my current config is:
intel 845GBV(with integrated Intel graphics)
PIV-2 Gz
1 GB SD ram
I had resisted upgrading my PC for a while now and wanted the price of core quad processors system to come down within my budged.
Now that I am unable to play high def video in my system without significant investment, I have thought about upgrading my system.
However, if I have to invest good I certainly want a future ready motherboard which will support technologies untill next 5 years at the same time in the buget. I feel, this means I might have to sacrifice my PIV processor and ram because latest generation mobo like 1366 and AM3 will not support it.
Can anyone suggest a very good mobo, processor combo which will allow me to play HD movies without additional cost and at the same time will allow me to slowly upgrade.
My budget for this is $250(RS 11K)
I am open for both AMD and Intel processors
thanks,
